The patch applies correctly and it does correctly what it is made for:
=# \timing
Timing is on.
=# select 1;?column?
---------- 1
(1 row)
Time: 0.407 ms
=# \watch 1
Watch every 1s Mon Aug 18 15:17:41 2014?column?
---------- 1
(1 row)
Time: 0.397 ms
Watch every 1s Mon Aug 18 15:17:42 2014?column?
---------- 1
(1 row)
Time: 0.615 ms
Refactoring it would be worth it thinking long-term... And printing
the timing in PSQLexec code path is already done in SendQuery, so
that's doing two times the same thing IMHO.
Now, looking at the patch, introducing the new function
PSQLexecInternal with an additional parameter to control the timing is
correct choosing the non-refactoring way of doing. But I don't think
that printing the time outside PSQLexecInternal is consistent with
SendQuery. Why not simply control the timing with a boolean flag and
print the timing directly in PSQLexecInternal?
